Some going so far as to track down a resident’s real life information and make harassing or threatening phone calls, and in very rare cases a few have traveled miles to mock their victims at their doorstep with veiled or direct threats. Who are these people and what motivates them? While the term is used in nearly all multiplayer online games, in Linden Lab’s Second Life and other MMO’s we call them Griefers.

Have you been looking for a community or event in your area, but have failed to find what you really want near enough to you? Are you someone with a disability, or who otherwise finds it problematic or impossible to get to resources that are local to you? Perhaps an online/VR alternative is the best solution.
